[Histonet] Methyl salicylate/glycerin

[Trisha Emry]

Hi,

We have some specimens that have been clearing in Methyl salicylate.  We
would like to transfer them to storage in glycerin.  Are there anti-fungal
additives that are needed for that purpose?

The methyl salicylate is considered a hazard by our environmental health and
safety people.  Are there tricks to cleaning up things that have been used
in it.  Or a way to make it safer to handle?

Thanks and Happy 2005!
